The only thing I didn’t like in it – was the amount of dust, you always have to keep your vacuum next to it turned on, and it wasn’t really useful when you needed to plane thick board. So, several months ago, I finally decided to try this mini planer from Proxxon.

Study Room Again

Window for the study room

Not really happy with this door, a doorway was cut badly, so I had to cut it in several places, and still it was hard to fit the door.

Lost several nails, ugh, at least, four, and they just disappear, there’s no way to find them 🙂

Window for the study room

Anyway, I need to make a decoration for the window and the door, those wires for lights are really annoying, I need to make chandeliers (well, these words are in every post of mine recently, but nothing changed 🙂
